As others have noted, the amount of ads have gotten completely out of control…I’d be curious to know how much ad time they average per episode.
The show now has so little substance now and seems to be focused solely on trends, bits, and patting themselves on the back - with no talk about X’s and O’s, no “inside information”, and no discussions about what is happening on the field.
Marty MMB · Sep 2024
After listening to the first two weeks and following the picks I’ve now uninstalled all my sports betting apps and quit sports betting. If you’re struggling to lose all your money, follow Chad and Simon to liquidate your accounts expeditiously and kick the gambling habit for good!

Great podcast for sports betting and general sports information, but the number of ads is overwhelming. The Volume Network - more like The Ad Network. I know you need to make money off the pod, but jeez.
spaceh0gg · Aug 2024
This podcast used to be unmatched in the insight and picks that Simon provides. Unfortunately it has become very similar to other sports/gambling podcasts now where it is a bunch of useless guests, mostly media members just giving their 2 cents, who are the definition of public gamblers and I would guess have never actually placed a bet in their life. Leave the guests for the pods in the summer where you aren’t discussing betting angles. That way people can skip having to listen to pro wrestlers, authors, and fantasy football guys.

Always be weary of a sports gambling podcast sponsored by a casino like this one is, they are touting bad picks and trying to influence the wrong side of where you should be at best and at worst, they are just poor bettors with terrible takes. Either way, it’s not something you should put much stock into. There are much better options available in the market.

This show was pretty good the last few years. I used to enjoy the picks and analysis. But this year and last, they contradict themselves and it actually sounds like they don’t know football. If Simon is a pro, how is he consistently below .500 and always asking other pros picks? All these guys do is contradict themselves and don’t win. And yes, the ads are terrible.
